- <p> MARRIAGE ANNULLED. Between Rudolf Bing, 87, former opera
- impresario; and Carroll Douglass, former mental patient at
- Bellevue Hospital; in New York City. Over Douglass's objections,
- Justice Carmen Ciparick invalidated the 2 1/2-year union on the
- ground that Bing, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease, is
- "incapable of understanding the nature and consequences" of his
- actions. According to his lawyer, Bing forgets marrying
- Douglass, and has not been told of the annulment because it
- would confuse him.
